No-one really falls out of love with Yuuki, instead, due to how the dynamic of borrowing works, everyone gets their turn. Guaranteed. And the rewards don't really leave the girls any room to doubt whether they are wanted, the way a guy going through several girls would in another series.
The character development mostly comes from everyone accepting that to be effective in combat, they kind of have to make being a poly work. And they do.
If a certain ability to get through the day is needed, then that is the girl who has to be clutching Yuukis chain.
It would quite literally be a matter of life or death for any one of the girls to hog him for themselves.
There's a power imbalance though, since Kyouka must be the one to lend Yuuki out to others.
Or Himari. I wrote it in another comment, but Kyouka can't truly keep Yuuki to herself if she wants to make the best use of his abilities.
She gets over her hangups for lending him pretty quick, and it's never made an issue, she doesn't reward or punish anyone by lending/withholding Yuuki based on emotional bullshit.
Sure, she has power over the others but not just through Yuuki. She's literally the unit commander, and a good one. She makes decisions based on what allows her unit as a whole to be the most effective it can be.
I'm not telling you things are fine based on what I've seen of the anime, I'm telling you this series doesn't go emotionally sour, because I read the manga, and know that.
To be fair, I've read the manga too😅
It's just that their relationships have yet to reach the later stages, and I'm concerned with how it will end. I've heard that other series have butchered relationships with otherwise-good progress.
Hopefully, this one stays good.
I'm honestly not troubled, the manga has already handled things that other series would turn into a complete shit-show in an very based manner.
Like Nei, or the way the seventh unit looks out for Himari where her family is concerned.
It displays a level of emotional intelligence that harem mangakas never seem to possess.
